Well what a f**kng day Thumbs down
Everything went wrong ....exhaust Manifold didn't fit as it was hitting the steering rack pins both sides ...sorted that ....then two pipes hit the side of the exhaust tunnel ...sorted ..

Then Clutch arm pin didn't come out & we had to drill it out ....sorted that ...

Then next problem was the special Clutch metal end cable on gearbox end it was to short because it's a push clutch now opposite of standard pull Clutch standard on a 6 ...

Then couldn't remove two of the 4 power steering fluid bolts ...sorted
Then the separate Clutch bearing keep jumping off the fork ...used Rubber bands to hold it while the box was fitted ...sorted
Loads of other little things ...so 2-3 hrs wasted today Thumbs down

Engines fully in & Gearbox in working

need to finish now ....Exhaust from manifold making ....Brake pipes F&R ( Wilwood Bias valve ) needs fitting bleeding & rear compensater valve removing ...servo vacuum pipe fitting ....engine Mapping ...seats fitting ....dash wiring tidying up ...flocked fibreglass dash fitting ....heated windscreen fitting .....gauges /volts / oil pressure fitting ...radiator bleeding ....getting much shorter Altenator belt as power steering removed ....

Then I had to sort Reverse gear out as I didn't have one ...the lever had dropped into the box ...so we had to remove the selector lever & engage the reverse lever back into place Thumbs up

How does the clutch and flywheel differ compared to standard, other than being super light?

Looks like a twin plate 7 1/4" clutch, lower inertia than a standard clutch but with higher clamping forces. Will be a push clutch rather than a pull, pretty easy to convert a standard 6 box to a push clutch though.

Only thing to be wary of with a super light flywheel is getting of the line, its a lot easier to stall it so give it plenty of revs!

Yep agree with pete much faster rev rising via lower inertia and massive Bhp and torque capacity, utter bstrd driving on road or in traffic Smile. The clutch is smaller diameter as Pete says the clutch will be awesome but hard work and won't last long if you go through traffic

Twin plate clutches aren't designed for regular town driving! I've seen twin plate clutches with sprung plates for Imprezas and Evos and the like, you could probably get some made but wouldn't be cheap!

Mine runs a weird cable, not sure what its off but the end is threaded, and it works the other way around to standard 6 cable. I think the fork and everything is the same, Just the cable is different.

Always good fun running the rally cars through france with the twin/triple plates, even with cerametallic paddles in so they'd take some stick the whole car shuddered and clanked it's way through traffic LOL

Yes my Cable is all metal but the rubber 20mm black compression plate on Zytel in the picture below almost flattens with the pressure when you push the clutch Crazy

I don't know about that ...but im hoping to shock some of them ultra fast Clios LOL

My Exhaust guy turned up & made me a two box Stainless exhaust with only ONE join & that's from the Sandy design Manifold to system ....amazing job & bloody cheap ...all bends done in his machine & 2.5 all the way ...PS Sandy said 2.5-2.75 not 2.75-3.00 as I said before LOL


Blandy .:::visited me tonight to pick up his box & I started the car for the very first time ...it started a treat ...but is only on a base map so turned it off after 3mins ...oil pressure was a treat & Accsump amazing ....

It's getting there Thumbs up
